DO WE REALLY KNOW what Early English looked like when it was written, and what it sounded like when it was spoken? What other languages was it related to, and how and when and why and to what extent was it differentiated from them? How much of its literature has been preserved, and what is its intrinsic value to us now? These, and many other kindred questions, are answered by Professor Clark in this thoughtful and instructive book which provides an authentic and lively guide to Old and Middle English language and literature. A mature and distinguished medievalist, the author has written, and recently revised, this volume specially for the Language Library. Dr John Williams Clark is a professor of English in the University of Minnesota, where he lectures on Old and Middle English. Size: 8vo. Nº de ref. del artículo: 125279
